Lake Nakuru Habitat and Wildlife

Lake Nakuru remains extremely famous for its avian spectacle. More than 400 species of birds call this marvel of geology and the surrounding park home. Chief among these are two types of pink flamingo.

At times, as many as 2 million of these birds stay on the lake at one time. What an incredible photo opportunity this must be.

The lake and surrounding park are also home to a myriad of animal species such as a population of both highly endangered black rhino and white rhinos.

Such a concentration of wildlife also draws numerous predators, as well. These include cheetahs, lions, and leopards.
